See, the thing is, a post costs nothing, roughly 30 seconds in time, and that's it. And it can cause so much happiness.

Which is why I ask you to donate your post to my thread, which is in honor of Raia. If you respect her, then please post. If not, then shrug and turn your head and ignore the poor orphan, who is starving, and the skinny dog with the sad eyes*.

Be a good person#! Post here%!

After some thought, I decided that to make this post a roaring success, I need to appeal to each aspect of Hatrackian society.

Firstly, to all the cool people. You know who you are. And you also know that if you're not seen here, you won't be cool anymore@. So get it over with, and post now.

Then to all the people who like last post threads and mindless spam: [The Wave] [Kiss] [Evil] [The Wave] [Evil] [The Wave] [Kiss]

There. That should turn all of those morons into their zombie mode. They probably aren't even reading this, and are automatically arming a reply smiley. Or they're reading this and getting annoyed [Wink] .

Finally, to the pun people. Post here or be leaft behind. I don't get why that's a pun, but if I posted it in a pun thread, it would probably be accepted as one, so it'll have to due here! Oops, and there's another!

*both of which are completely unrelated
#do something that is really nice, like charity work or baking cookies, rather than surfing the net
%this sentence and the previous are 100% unrelated.
@or you may stay cool. No guarantees.
$this endnote goes no-where. Hah!

I am a Raia-fan (not in the eating sense in the good-vibes sense)

and

Forty Two?

EDIT: Wow, the bit about the skinny orphan wasn't there before... and I am answering two questions that no longer exist!

*is confused*

edit: Hey! That wasn't very nice. I post a friendly, waving smilie, and then you go and edit in an insult about people who use smilies? I'd thought your post was amsuing, at first. Now I think it's a bit rude.

That's right Teshi. Or did the questions even exist in the first place? Only you, me, and the people who saw can answer that.

Oh, and it's the dog that is skinny. [Wink]

I think it's a Raia appreciation thread but it seems to also be a psycological experiment.

Appreciates and respects Raia, because if she were not here there would be ruthless vandals spray painting the walls. And she's cool.

I think i show Raia very little appriciation for being my friend, which i know is not always easy. *shows appriciation now*

Though i don't get the deal with the numbers, the refrances to eating Raia, or the thing about the orphan and the puppy, still, the smilies were cool. [Hat]

In fact . . . Raia, if you see this thread and aren't done with the papers, shoo! Go finish! [Wink]

Oh, and I neglected to mention it before, but Raia's great. And yeah, this is a distinctly odd thread.

Why was it originally called "Eating Raia", anyone know?

I remember reading about a pub named Raia here. Or a bookshop. Or something. *shrugs*

Whatever. I still appreciate Raia, even if she's not a pub or a bookshop. *appreciates Raia* [The Wave]

Raia is so awesome. She sent me a Christmas present--a pair of super-awesome earrings. I guess this means I have to get her a whole bunch of little presents for Hannukah? [Wink] All the better, that's one girl who deserves to be showered with love and gifts.

[The Wave] for Raia

I saw Garden State on Wednesday and was very amused when the guy was explaining the Wailing Wall to Portman.

Is Raia pronounced the same way as my born in Israel, but American friend's sister's name Ryah is?
